Robi-Wan Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 Hey all! I’m a fairly new member here. Rekindled my fondness for the Jaguar last year and have gotten back into collecting big time and it’s been a blast! I’m looking at a few items on the AA Store that are cheaper here than on eBay. Curious how trustworthy the store is? I assume it’s legit, but I always get nervous buying from new places and putting my debit card info in. Anyone ever have any issues or have any insight at all into the store? Thanks! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeatari1 Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 No problems here! Just bought two Jaguar reproduction Pro Controllers and got them without a hitch. Highly recommend. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dj_convoy Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 I've made several successful orders from the store, and even preordered an expensive item (the SGM for the ColecoVision) which made me a bit nervous, but was no problem. Order with impunity! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Machine Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 The store is top-notch. You really need to get Rebooteroids for Jaguar if you do not have it. My favorite Jaguar game. Also, grab one of those Jag pro-controllers while you can! I think the store is "on vacation" til the end of the month, but double check that info. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, any new orders will not be going out until the beginning of February. Still working on catching up on the large number of orders from December. Shipped nearly 150 packages today, and another large batch will be going out tomorrow. ..Al 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man, they’re keeping you pretty busy after the holidays, eh? That’s a heck of a work load! Okay so this is good info to have. Would you say it’s still safe to go ahead and place order as long as I’m fine waiting till Feb to get it? Or are you guys currently “not taking orders”? Thanks again.

Yes, by all means place an order, just keeping in mind that you won't receive it until February. Thanks! ..Al 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Austin Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 The AtariAge store is fantastic. Stuff always arrives relatively quickly and is well packed. ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the AtariAge store ever came to the Midwest Gaming Classic here in Wisconsin, my wallet wouldn't survive. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+davidcalgary29 Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 Seeing sacks upon stacks of games for Atari systems...and really only Atari systems...was simply amazing. And when Al pulled out copies of Baby Pac-Man and Galagon, I almost fainted! It was like the toy store Tom Hanks visits in Big, but actually fun for adults. And all of those play/testing stations...I’m still kicking myself that I only brought carry on luggage (and room for a few games). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RREDDWARFF Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 I too am fairly new (again) to collecting for the Jaguar, so I had some similar concerns recently, but let me and everyone else in here put you at ease. Albert from Atariage is trustworthy. The guy is very busy, from from what I can tell, with all his responsibilities. When I first ordered from the Atariage store, he took the time to answer all my questions and eliminate any concerns. Then we ended up chatting a bit about the Jaguar and the possibility of cool new games for it we'd like to see. His customer service fantastic and he's a really nice and personal guy. There quality is top notch too. I also ordered Rebooteroids from the Atariage store and I own a reproduction pro controller that was included in a Jaguar bundle recently. Both are excellent quality. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+davidcalgary29 Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 New collectors: don’t forget Songbird, either. I know it’s available for other systems, and that it’s *just* a 2D platformer, but Soccer Kid is still one of my favourites for the system. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My first experience was buying Juno First for the 2600. It was my first ever homebrew purchase, and it took awhile to get my order. I'm not gonna lie. After sending the somewhat angry where's my order email, I found out Al builds these carts and boxes from scratch and all by himself. I really felt stupid afterward. It never occurred to me that most if not all homebrew carts were built to order. But the quality is FANTASTIC!! It was well worth the wait. One of these days, I need to order the boxart for Juno First lol. I've been really wishing I had bought the game CIB rather than cart only. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+slx Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 Just received my copy of Rebooteroids, previous orders were dispatched equally quickly. Only troubles encountered were entirely due to slow postal customs processing this side of the Atlantic.

Well, Last Strike and reBOOTed will be before that. Downfall: OG+ and Kobayashi Maru: Redux on reBOOTed also use the rotary 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
